Copy Number Alterations in Glioma Cell Lines
Established tumor-derived cell lines are widely and routinely used as in vitro cancer models for various kinds of biomedical research. The easy management of these cell cultures, in contrast to the inherent difficulty in establishing and mantaining primary tumoral cultures, has contributed to the wide use of these inmortalized cell lines in order to characterize the biological significance of s...
متن کاملGenome-wide DNA copy number predictors of lapatinib sensitivity in tumor-derived cell lines.
A common aim of pharmacogenomic studies that use genome-wide assays on panels of cancers is the unbiased discovery of genomic alterations that are associated with clinical outcome and drug response. Previous studies of lapatinib, a selective dual-kinase inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and HER2 tyrosine kinases, have shown predictable relationships between the activity of th...
متن کاملA detailed inventory of DNA copy number alterations in four commonly used Hodgkin's lymphoma cell lines.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL) is a common malignant lymphoma characterized by the presence of large, usually multinucleated malignant Hodgkin and Reed Sternberg (HRS) cells which are thought to be derived from germinal center B-cells. In cHL, the HRS cells constitute less than 1% of the tumor volume; consequently the profile of genetic aberrations in cHL is still ...
متن کاملAssessment of mitochondrial DNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocyte of opiate abusers and healthy individuals
Background: Based on the studies, variation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes is associated with increased susceptibility to diseases including cancer. Opiate abusers are at high risk for diseases. In this study, we measured the mtDNA copy number in peripheral blood leukocytes in a group of opiate abusers compared with those in healthy individuals. Met...
متن کاملDNA copy number changes in malignant ovarian germ cell tumors.
Malignant ovarian germ cell tumors (OGCTs) include immature teratomas (ITs), dysgerminomas (DGs), endodermal sinus tumors (ESTs), choriocarcinomas, and embryonal carcinomas. Knowledge about the genetic changes associated with malignant OGCT development is sparse. We therefore analyzed 25 OGCTs (12 DGs, 4 ESTs, and 9 ITs) for gains and losses by comparative genomic hybridization. In total, more ...
